Smoothies vs Sorbet

Is sorbet a frozen smoothie, or is a smoothie a de-frosted sorbet?

Smoothie's got Cow

In my opinion, a Smoothie's not a Smoothie unless it's got Cow. Yoghurt, to be exact.

Sorbet is frozen smoothie

• A real smoothie shouldn't have been frozen (it should have fresh fruit)
• A real smoothie has no added suger (but sorbet should)

entirely different

Smooties are (best) made from frozen fruits.

Or something...

sorbet is frozen juice

smothie is juice, usually with bananas as thickener. and often extras thrown in at
extra cost like wheat grass juice, aloe vera,
wheat germ, middle-aged women vita-packs,
sports vita-packs, ginko, etc. etc.

I think everyone misunderstood my question...

Which came first - someone freezing thick fruit juices, or someone sticking thick fruit juices in a bottle (possibly after drinking a de-frosted sorbet)?

It's a chicken and egg question really.

Freezing I should think, until recently I think the only that came in bottles was whiskey and wine.
